The Lawrenceville Farmers Market (LFM) takes place from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. every Tuesday, rain or shine, from now through November 25 at Bay 41, 115 41st Street.
The LFM is committed to increasing food access, growing local agricultural businesses for long-term sustainability, and providing a vibrant resource for the Lawrenceville community. LFM vendors sell fruit, vegetables, meat, mushrooms, flowers, dairy, prepared foods, bread, baked goods and sweets, beverages, and home and body products. The Kids Table has games and activities for younger customers every week.
This year marks a number of LFM partnership milestones. It’s the second year of their SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) Match program, matching SNAP benefits dollar for dollar in 2025, thanks to a partnership with Just Harvest and their funding from the City of Pittsburgh’s Food Justice Fund. It’s also the third year of LFM’s partnership with Catapult Greater Pittsburgh’s Culinary Entrepreneurship program—a business accelerator for minority-owned, food-based businesses—whose booth will host a few different businesses from their program throughout the year.
The LFM is a program of Lawrenceville United—an inclusive, resident-driven, nonprofit organization that works to improve the quality of life for all Lawrenceville residents. Lawrenceville United schedules and covers the cost of weekly ACCESS van rides from York Commons, I. W. Abel Place, and St. Augustine’s Plaza, so that Lawrenceville seniors (ages 65-plus) are able to get a ride to the market for free.
LFM hosts one to two community partners every week according to a rotating theme: Seniors, Families & Kids, Mutual Aid, Community Health, and People of Lawrenceville.
There will be a Vitalant blood drive at the June 10 LFM and flu shots in the fall. And to celebrate LFM’s 15th season, there will be a “birthday party” at the July 8 market!
